The Volks Wagen car is currently priced at anything from R350 to R360,000. The exact series of his Golf 7 is unknown.

Another car that he had in his garage was a Lexus. He was said to have fallen in love with the brand, which led him to get a Lexus GS 350.

The car is said to be worth R2.2 million.

His new ride runs on a 5-liter petrol V8 engine, and it comes with a top speed of 270km/h, while it can also reach 100km/h in just 4.5 seconds.

  • Lexus SUV- R2.2 million
  • Golf 7 GTI- R350 to R360,000

He Has Kept His Expensive Home A Secret

Themba Zwane is one of the most down-to-earth players in the entire PSL. Unlike many others, he does not splash the things he owns on social media, neither does he make any noise about it.

However, what is known is that the large property has an outdoor swimming pool and a game room where he spends some time playing.

He has not forgotten about where he came from, as even with the success he has achieved, Themba is always going back to the community in Ecaleni, where he was raised and spending time with the locals. He supports the young ones with boots to play football and other items they may need. Zwane is loved among his people because of how he associates with them.
